performing the most varied operations -such as mortising, shaping, boring and moulding-with the most per- feet accuracy. It is wonderfully adapt ed to the delicate and complicated working of pieces for armor- plating turrets, of helix supports, of rudders, of cranked shafts, of pistons, etc., for modern war vessels, and it handles and shapes immense masses of steel almost as skillfully as the carpenter carves small blocks of wood. It's weight is more than $40 tons, and it is driven by an engine of 25 horse power. Con- parison of this tool with one of 76 tons, which was mechanical marvel some p years ago, gives a striking illustration of the almost incredible progress of our generation.
 GERMAN ING-RIsK.-While danger from lightning appears to have been increasing in most parts of Germany during recent years, Dr. Hellmann finds the reverse to be the case in Schleswig- Holstein, Baden and Hesse. Four factors affect the light ming danger to buildings--the unequal frequency of storms, the geological character of the soil, the variability of population, and the mode of build ing. Calling the danger on lime 1, that for sand is 9, while for loam it is 22. Moisture of the ground adds to the liability of damage, marshy dis tricts being most dangerous. With like conditions. the relative danoer da- creases the more houses are grouped together, this influence being conspic- uous in Baden, where the lightning strokes have varied with locality, from "A to 265 per million houses. Buildings with hard roofs are safest, the liability of such houses to be struck being l, those with soft roofs z, church towers 39, and windmills 52. In the fifteen years 1s69-S3, there were killed by lightning for every million men, in Prussia, A; in Baden, 3.8; in France, 3.1; and in Sweden 8.

U4cruI and Eurtrul Medicines.

There is a certain class of remedies for con- stipation absolutely useless. hese are bo- dophyllin, aloes, rhubarb. gamboge. and other worthless ingredients. The damage they do to the sto:nachs of those who use 'hem Is incalculable. They eyacuate the bowels, it is true, but always do so violently stomach. Better far to use the agreeable and ssiutary aperient, Hostetter's Stomach Bit tsrs, Jhe laxative effects of which is never vGlsive, violent action of the bowels. On the contrary, it invigorates those organs. the stomach and the entire system. As means of curing and preventing malarial favers, no medicine can compare with 1t, and 1t rem edies nervous deb lity, rheumatism, kidney and bladder inactivity, and other inorganic ailments.

Castillo Arvenandes, a Mexican who does not bear a very savory reputation, and who has been in trouble before, is now wanted for a dastardly attempt to commit brutal assault on a twelve-year- old girl named Clara Argone. At 3 o'clock Tuesday morning the brute made his way into the house of the girls parents and attempted the crime, but was foiled by the girl, who struggled so effectually as to scare the fiend off. A war rant was sworn out for his arrest, but up to the time of going to press his capture had not been accomplished. Great indignation is expressed by our Mexican popu- lation over the affair.

 Affairs in this section have heer
 very quet of late, the calm that
 usually pervades just before court.
 Tho roundup on tine cienega commenced Monday, and owing to the fine condition of the cattle, horses and men, will be finished about Tuesday next.
 Lieutenant Fowler, with a de- tail of soldiers and Indian scouts; attended the round, up and recov- cred ten head of Indian cattle.
 Mir. and Mrs. H. \. Morgan, with their baby, returned from 6 visit to their ranch and vicinity, looking as if their trip agreed with them.
 Merijalda Grijalba has been en- gagged as interpreter at the San Carlos agency. The authorities have undoubtedly secured the ser vices of the right man, as he is thoroughly conversant with Apache, different tongues, Span ish and English. It IS his inten- ton to remove his family and make Q permanent home at the agency.
 Messrs. J. W. Parks and J. c. Murphy of Duncan dropped down to see us, having some land mat ters to adjust with the clerk of the court. J. c. struck a towny, Stonewall, while here, and both, in their minds, over a bottle of Morgan's best, visited the scenes of their boyhood.
 County Treasurer Pomeroy is preparing to erect a residence here. He purchased the building formerly used as a school-house, which he will remodel, and by ad- ding two wings will make com modious residence. He is at pres ent at Bowie, where his family are sojourning for the present.
 District Attorney Bolan re- turned to-day from Tucson, where he had gone to visit his wife, who was sick. Owing to the washouts he was compelled to make the trip by wagon, and a more disagreea- ble one, he says, he never expe- rienced. Mrs. Bolan's health has improved, but she is still very ill. As soon as her con- dition will permit, it is Mir. Bo- lan's intention to send her to Los where, it is to be hoped. she will recuperate. Mir. Bolan | was, in a manner, compelled to re- turn, as it is now but a short time l until onr next term of court, be- l fore which he has considerable | business.
 Court will, unless something ex- traordinary occurs, open at. the | regular time, second Monday of i next month, and judging from the of cases will continue at | least two weeks.
 The Board of Supervisors will ! meet week from tomorrow, but l beyond the regular business of | auditing accounts nothing of i'm portance is expected to come up.
 Between the meeting of the Board of Supervisors and the ,onvening of court this place will | be a scene of business and excite i ment for two or three weeks, after !, which it will relapse to its normal | condition. I wish your | readers to remember that the De troit House. under the manage nent of Jack Moore, still main | tains its reputation for excellent l food and lodging. Parties intend | ing to visit here during court | would do well to secure accommo- lations Tn advance, as they are | limited and the attendance will be l large. A postal to Jack will pre- vent inconvenience. CHA.
